what you mean to say that if a cgi script is sending lot of emails
then it will show under email traffic but not at
somebody@??? thedomain.com beingthe hosted domain but i
think if the person is using smtp to send email then it must be
visible as someuser@??? but what is not clear if somebody
is using script to send email using apache, will it be shown as email
traffic or not, what do you think
